about one million, 100,000 users , approaching the schedule, we don't even count yet, they say in the electricity supplier, of course, that's the information we have here, in any case, it's necessary, we're already used to it, but you know, we always want something better, but there is such as there is an enemy, such infrastructure facilities are being restored, but we have to live and win in this life. thank you for being with us. i wish you a good evening until tomorrow and now for your attention a news release from my colleagues from the ukrainian editorial office of bbc news, we are watching together we are from ukraine on bbc news ukraine my name is hryhoriy zhagalov today in the program volodymyr zelenskyi visited the hottest spot on the bakhmut front that the president brought to the front line with what he returned to kyiv with all over ukraine

hundreds of people killed by russians remain unidentified families submit dna samples to try to find the remains of their relatives , the report of the bbc correspondent sarai rainzford and the committee investigating the storming of the capitol recommends bringing criminal charges against ex-president trump, how it can change the political schedules on the other side of the atlantic, and what should we worry about kyiv? volodymyr zelenskyi visited the hottest point on the front. the president of ukraine

came to bakhmut without prior announcement. and asked to hand it over to the us congress as thanks for the supply of weapons. this is far from zelenskyi’s first visit to the frontline, but bakhmut is now the most dangerous place in the entire donbas, the russian occupation forces have been trying to break through the defense line in this area for several months, and according to zelenskyi, he came to bakhmut because here i will also quote ukrainian defenders risk their lives for the sake of the people, and in order to support them, it is also necessary to risk something, and here as the bbc correspondent told the world audience about it, as his guide, volodymyr zelenskyi's very bold step, because this is a city that has seen the fiercest battles in recent weeks, russian forces are trying to capture bakhmut

for months, and the ukrainian forces continue to hold the defense. zelenskyi met with the soldiers fighting in bakhmuti and expressed his huge support for them. the russian military is trying to capture the city, because it is a strategic point and a connecting link between other larger cities of the donetsk region, slavic kramatorsk. it is interesting that zelenskyi's visit lasted for hours later after putin said that the russian troops found themselves in very difficult conditions at the front he said about the difficult conditions in four regions of ukraine that russia annexed part of the zaporozhye kherson region in the south of luhansk and donetsk region in the east of the country, and obviously the weather also affects this. as you can see, it is snowing in kyiv

. ivan stupak e-e i congratulate you a-a i will be with you i will, of course, ask you about what is happening at the front, especially in the bakhmut area. the report that zelenskyi is in bakhmut , eh, hmm, the thought does not give me rest, but how often in modern history are there cases when the first persons arrive? now, but i will tell you without exaggeration. well, my whole environment is here at work. i met someone there today. first question: did you see? did you hear? do you know where zelensky was? you understand. where does he know? i also wonder how moscow

reacted to this when they saw these messages. it probably annoys moscow, but we can already see that putin is already forced to copy zelensky. the other day, he talked to the military for several hours that gutsi, their minister of defense, seems to have sent him closer to the line. of the front, but there the journalists found out that 75 km to the front line and it was uh, okay, let's move on to the situation, uh , in both mouths. would be a pyrrhic victory for russia eh hmm do you agree with this and at what cost is this battle already costing for the russians? i completely agree with you, look, i 'll say it personally. politics. i saw the desire of the kremlin to take

at any cost to put its tricolor in ruins, that is, to tell the deep people that we finally, after seven months of really manic attempts, captured this city with really great losses of equipment, people, efforts, money even that money from such taxes of the russian federation, that is, there is already a goal here. i see, i want, what is the importance . - and regarding the situation at the front, i also saw reports that it seems the russians managed to seize the initiative at least in some areas of the front, although experts doubt that this will last long. and what are your assessments of the current state of affairs

i will tell you about this positional war. this is how the russians learn without exaggeration. they learn from their mistakes. from our mistakes. they try to learn some international experience. they adapt. well, for example, if you take the missile attacks on kiev by the shaheds of ukraine as a whole, then they are really trying to be innovators, they are thinking of new tactics there. strategy, they recently boasted that we and we never bomb peaceful settlements at night , and this is literally when it was three o'clock yesterday, 30 shaheds of these flew to kyiv drones, that's why i say they teach it. they try to do some new tactics on the battlefield. they began to use less armored vehicles, in particular, note that because it became very, very er, less, they use people more, first of all, we are partially mobilized and persons from places

of imprisonment because they are not counted as military losses, the russian cleaners and these victims do not need to be paid for their injuries or their relatives and friends for the death of a karvel citizen, and ukraine is studying in the armed forces of ukraine, adapting to their tactics, strategy, and changes that the russians may be introducing, without a doubt, look, i can see that there are no list many, many facts, i will tell you this, in my opinion, the deep and most important thing that was done by our command is that there are no idols in the army, there is a military general there, commanding everything he is the leader, only he knows how to do. all the rest must follow his instructions, close your eyes , do everything, that is, the powers are delegated

downwards, that is, if you are in a lower rank , except for the team, you have a certain division of the folder you have a range of duties, you have initiative, show yourself, don't wait for instructions or approval from above. these are really cool european practices, and ukraine is trying to use them, and it really works in a commander in the middle ranks, their eyes are burning , they plan themselves, they resist, they charge into positive energy in their subordinates and yes, go ahead, pay attention, work ahead, if everything is cool, super, everyone received awards, titles , medals. there were no mistakes, by the way, i read the article the other day that the russians are also trying, or at least trying somehow to transfer the initiative to the lower

e -links. increasing responsibility for the military for non-fulfillment of the orders of the leadership and zaluzhne himself. this draft law and its support among some of the soldiers supported it and caused criticism. how do you evaluate this draft law and why did it appear now yes look, there are really conflicting norms , er, they satisfy someone, they do n’t suit someone at all, but it is in this story that i trust mr. depending, without a doubt, he is now the person who creates a real victory okay okay well, not only him a-a he how he answers he makes the final decisions of military operations, plans an operation to liberate the territory, deceives the russians, informs the russians,

thought out all these operations, so i trust his opinion if he says that it is important to him, if he relies on the opinion and requests of his subordinate commanders that it is very necessary, that's why i think that at this stage it is necessary, let it be after the war, let's figure it out. there will be times of peace, there will be time to talk and debate in the verkhovna rada, if there is a tradition in the verkhovna rada to kill each other's noses, whatever please, let the people 's deputies do it. but in peacetime, if necessary, now in wartime, please accept in order to keep the situation under control. thank you very much for your time, for finding the opportunity. ivan stupak, a military expert and the future of the ukrainian institute, will talk to us live. i am also glad that no technical and technical circumstances did not

prevent our communication, because there are still big problems with electricity in kyiv, and the power industry is still trying to restore it. electricity supply, but numerous regions of ukraine remain without education, and in fact, in kyiv region, the situation is critical without electricity in 80% of the region, in some areas the blackout can last for 2-3 days this was reported by the head of kyiv oblast of the military administration oleksiy kuleba, according to him, with each shelling, the complexity and duration of repair work increases. i would like to remind you that on the night of december 19, russian troops attacked ukraine with kamikaze drones, and at the moment , work is still ongoing to restore electricity, primarily for critical infrastructure facilities, in particular, hospitals and water supply, and throughout ukraine, hundreds of people killed by russians in the city of izyum after ukraine liberated it from russian occupation remain unidentified, found in the forest

almost half a thousand graves, almost a third have not yet been identified, now families are submitting dna samples to try to find the remains of their relatives , reporter-correspondent bivsara rainzford warns some footage may shock when these doors are opened, the smell of death rushes in because those who lie here were killed a few months ago in each bag the victim of this war is still marked only by the number of the deceased, the residents of izyum, who are still waiting until they are identified. but in their place freed from the russian troops, the living are also still waiting for their families they are looking for their relatives who died during the raisin occupation, so the police here are not only collecting evidence of atrocities, but also taking dna samples

from people like tatyana, who know that their relatives are dead but hope that dna analysis will help to finally bury their bodies. tatyana's sister and nephew died in march during the russian airstrike on their house they found the aira it was torn i can't even find a part of my sister's body i'm waiting to find even a small piece so i can bury them both together the police are working on it the room is extremely calm. be careful , because everyone who comes to them can tell a terrible story. they all have close relatives killed during the occupation of this city, and none of them have yet found their bodies

. tatyana's sister and nephew died here. they were hiding in the basement. even after a few months after the shelling, the scale of the destruction is amazing, whole families died here, but the identification of their remains is very slow, the experts are overworked, and it is difficult to take dna and severely burned bodies on a regular basis, but tamara is desperately trying to find the body she brought her son to the ruins of their house, which was destroyed a few days before the liberation of the raisin. oleg died here and died in his bed. they took him to the hospital and in the chaos no one

could say where they buried her son. my son is lying somewhere and he just needs to be betrayed and it is not known how he says he is in need, they just pretended to be earth, everything was blown up, well done, my god, my son, we asked me, here are women, i can’t, maybe oleg was brought here to one hundred graves dug up by volunteers during the occupation of raisin, many were buried without a name. this one is only marked as grandfather. the bodies were buried in september, but so far, with the help of dna tests, they were able to identify only five of them.

russian soldiers, but all this time his mother did not lose hope, now she knows he was shot, god teaches to forgive, i will never forgive murderers and i will live with hope and i will believe that the burial of a loved one is the consequence does not stop the suffering of the family, but even this is the last. goodbye is what many are waiting for here and it is still. in the meantime, russia itself has shortened the new year's celebration, canceled the fireworks concert, this is how they plan to celebrate the new year , all because of the war that russia went to ukraine, at the same time, the russian authorities use the

holiday it's time for propaganda, and thanks to such propaganda, even thousands of kilometers from the kremlin, people live in a parallel reality, almost a looking glass, where they believe that this is their country, as if it is defending itself, and not leading brutally the provoked war in the siberian city of chita was visited by the bbc correspondent steve rosenberg and here is the material about the deep russian people ah-ahh at first glance siberia is very far from the war in ukraine, but normality in these shots is an illusion because the war changed this russia and pushed the country into darker this time, the locals are preparing for the ice festival , but this year there are no usual perch, santa claus with reindeer, today there are soldiers with kalashnikov assault rifles, the whole army is a kind of

cold war to glorify the real hot the war that russia is waging in ukraine i think it is a good idea we are waging a war that is why i think it is right to have ice soldiers here i agree with this we are defending our country from the nazis russia is attacking from all sides including with the help of lgbt propaganda we reject these foreign values ​​before i have not heard such words from the russians, but the kremlin has convinced many here that russia is waging an existential battle with the west. it is now minus 26 degrees here, and with such weather it is difficult to even talk or think about the kremlin propaganda that the russians receive through the state media works just as the temperature is -26°, it prevents many people from thinking rationally, but what is happening and why there are few seasonal holidays and joy

here, but there is a lot of patriotism from chityna snowmen with russian flags to the letter z, a symbol of russian aggression in ukraine, at the same time local television shows a festive plot about how the ditlakhas write letters, but this time not to santa claus, but to russian soldiers in ukraine, after all, there are russians who perceive patriotism a little differently ivan losev says that he is against the war recently in social networks, he wrote about his dream in which he met with the president of ukraine zelensky for this and other posts on social networks , he was prosecuted and fined for discrediting the russian army, the closer the collapse of the empire approaches, the more stupid the laws become, patriotism is loving your country and criticizing it to bring changes, patriotism - this is the desire to make one's city better so that people want

to live there and live well, but russia's patriotism consists in bombing ukraine to pieces the leaders do not want our country to be better , they just want people in another country to live worse, it was worse in others, oh, the year will soon end, a year that changed the whole world, including russia, but the only thing that the russians will not celebrate is peace on earth, meanwhile, across the ocean, the committee the house of representatives of the united states released the results of a year and a half investigation into former president donald trump, they accuse him of involvement in the january 6 affair. the results of the vote when the democrat joe biden won, trump is currently being charged with obstruction of justice, conspiracy to defraud the

federal government, and inciting a weapons facility. the committee's recommendation is not binding. the congressional committee recommends bringing the us president to criminal responsibility donald trump is accused of provocation with the storming of the capitol at the end of his presidential term term, he lost the 2020 election and he knew it, but he decided to try to stay in office, he tried to cancel the results of the vote and block the transfer of power by playing key pieces of video evidence, the committee did make a decision in the case that lasted 18 months, according to the conclusion , the president not only incited people to attack on january 6, i also knew that his statements about the so

-called stolen elections are known to be false, i do not agree with the idea of ​​claiming that the elections were stolen and making public the things that i told the president, but he has not yet put pressure on officials to falsify the voting results, the election results were falsified, but we can't play along with these people, so go home. we'd love you. the special committee can't make prosecutors listen to its recommendations, but donald trump is already facing charges for with several articles, the former president announced his candidacy for the next election, and now the pressure on him is growing. because he is being accused of trying to disrupt the previous elections, voice of america correspondent natalka's song joins the broadcast live from washington natalka, i'm glad to welcome you and first of all, explain the trump factor is still important

in american politics grigoriia well, here you have to consider from which point of view to talk about it in general, and yes and no, it should not be underestimated and should not be to overestimate the truth here, the most appropriate illustration of such a statement is the recent results of the elections to the congress of the united states. that is, these are the midterm elections, an important factor here is that trump himself promised that we would be strongly red waves, that is, a big victory for the republicans, it happened, but it was not such a massive attack by the republicans, the majority in the lower house will be, but not as guaranteed, not as powerful as trump himself promised regarding the upper house, that is, the senate, the republicans did not manage to win, and this story was just the reason for that for many observers to talk about the trump factor as

the kiss of death factor trump said and kept many candidates open ultimately led to the fact that these people after all the elections in their small states did not receive it, respectively, did not receive a place in the congress . thus, the trump factor remains important, but it is not decisive for american politics, and the current decision is how much it really threatens a criminal case against trump and how much a criminal case against trump can be well, i don't know the kiss of death for american politics, whether it can isolate trump from politics in the future or even lead to a new political crisis, this is such a multi-vector question in the first place the ministry of justice is already conducting its investigations into the events of january 6, 2021. i would like to remind you that on january 6, 2021, more than one

person was indicted and sent to prison. the people who actually decided yesterday, that is, the representatives of the investigative committee on january 6, called little people or the pawns are actually the people who took direct part in the riot in er during those events. many of them are already er serving their time behind bars, but this does not mean that donald trump himself is completely outside the focus of this investigation here it is also impossible to say for 100% that he is in the spotlight, because american justice works in such a way that the prosecutors themselves never share information about the investigation that is in the development stage, that is, not yet completed. the ministry of justice, of course, will decide on its own discretion whether to consider these uh recommendations or not to take them into account mary beautiful this is the

attorney general of the united states he was just talking about the fact that he will be most interested in this story the evidence that you can with him to share the committee, but he was generally very careful about the fact that he would say whether he would listen to the recommendations given to him by the committee . criminal proceedings yes well, you already predicted it to me, i will ask another very vector question, i traditionally want to put any events in the world in a ukrainian context or ukrainian events in an international context trump in the past was able to involve ukraine in the internal political struggle in the usa, how much risk is there now that certain politicians will use ukraine or try to use ukraine as an argument against political opponents there, at least during the elections, we have seen such attempts from trump supporters. and i believe that in the near future

we can expect them and my opinion is actually based on those statements made by people close in views to trump who said that america should first mind its own business and take care of its fellow citizens only later to withdraw such an international summons to take care of ukraine, but since we see that the republican party itself is not homogeneous now, i will remind you that, for example , the leader of the republicans of the upper house , that is, the leader of the minority of the upper house , mykola, for example, very clearly stated that he sees only one the perpetrators of those events, although he did not name them, at the same time in kermanich, the lower house, the results of the lower house, and kevin mccarthy. he just stands in such positions of support for trump, but in a larger to a certain extent, the republicans have agreed on everything among themselves, and what exactly will their

position look like, apart from the fact that they would like to see the supervision of the money that is sent as aid to ukraine and the actual issue of money, the issue of material support, the issue of military support, the provision of weapons, and here are these the factors will be very important, but it used to be the ukrainian focus, which consists of republicans and democrats of completely different views, the sphere of decalization . about the fact that they will do everything possible at the level of their parties so that support for ukraine does not stop, and how successful these things will be, we will already know from the moment when the new congress starts working. that is, all the seams next year. america washington thank you colleague take care well that's all for today, look for more stories on our site bbc.ua and our
